Dear Sirâ€"A relative of mine wish- ing to locate in a clean. law-abiding community. upon my invitation come to our village for the purpose of “look- ing around." intending to purchase a house. But alas! here is what he one perienced: Upon leaving the train he was chased a block by a yelmng cur; next he was obliged to wade in a mud puddle because the walk was in the possession 0! a cow. After dinner he lit his pipe and was taking a comfort- able smoke while seated in the swing, when h’e was struck in the right ear with a pebble shot from a “sling-shot" in the hands oi a. small boy about 17 years old. Being a man of even tem- per and very optimistic, he was quite willing to overlook these incidents, but when he decided to inspect my garden and found it occupied by a neighbor's cow. which beast was devouring the results of three months' labor, his optimism began to quake and be was about tempted to use language consid- erably stronger than the onions tram- pled by the aforesaid animal, out ot‘ sympathy for me. Having in the past only contributed toward the support of neighbors' cats. dogs. chickens and rabbits, the addition of a. cow or so didn't mills me a great deal, but it left an awful impression upon the prospoo tive resident. However, by a little diplomacy and considerable persua- sion, he decided to stay until next day. What met his gaze the following morn- in; when he arose killed for all time any intention he mi‘ht have ever had to be one 01 us. Another cow was lin- ishing what the beast or the night he- tore had overlooked. lie (the relative) immediately hlsd himself to the sin tiun, and with a deep sigh and a sad farewell. he fled from Booties-ville never to return I won't take up any more oi your valuable spare comment- in upon those residents who have no [curd for othsn' property; but say.
